The Skill parameter has been removed from Smasher infoboxes, and in its place are the new "Best historical ranking" and "Best tournament result" parameters. SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters. |
When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified. Please also fix old results on Smasher pages that do not abide to this standard. Refer to our Smasher article guidelines to see how results tables should be formatted. |

Event 33: Lethal Marathon is one of the 51 event matches in Super Smash Bros. Melee.
Layout
This event is similar to the F-Zero stage in Adventure Mode where the player has to get from point A to point B. However, the gameplay speed is twice as fast as normal, making it more difficult to control Captain Falcon and react. Also, the F-Zero machines are more dangerous than they were in Adventure mode, where they can hit the player multiple times in succession, causing hundreds of damage and an One-Hit KO. It is possible to survive getting hit, if the player is only hit by the last F-Zero machine, or by DIing out of the F-Zero machines into the ground and teching, though that is extremely difficult to perform with the sped up gameplay.
There are certain points on the field where the player is safe from the cars if they duck, most notably the platforms and bends in the road.
